3/6 ideas I’ve got have been canned
And two haven’t even been made public yet (J.S.S.S and Singing Divas)
Only one has successfully ran (WoW v1)
That’s worrying
They’ll be forgotten about
J.S.S.S already had a few leaks and it’s an anagram anyway, people won’t figure it out
so my mom played Magic the Gathering in college
and at some point when I was like … eightish, I found a shoebox full of her old cards
and I was like ‘wow these are really neat, what are these’ and Mom decided the solution was to teach me how to play
my decks were obviously super uncompetitive because I was building them from super old cards and there had been a bunch of power creep, and separately because rather than actually do it competently I was just like ‘well TECHNICALLY there’s no MAXIMUM deck size’ and put all the cards I thought were cool (and that fit with the color scheme I was going for, Mom did at least manage to communicate some basic principles) into my deck
also occasionally I brought my deck with me to conventions to play against Real Adults who were mostly as far as I can recall mildly amused at this Tiny Child attempting to play against them

uhh
when I was about the same age I read a book where a minor plot point was one of the characters counting to a million (over the course of multiple sessions)
I promptly decided I wanted to do this
I never made it higher than a couple thousand but I had a little piece of paper and whenever I had to leave off I would write down what number I’d left off at although sometimes I lost the paper and wound up restarting from the last number I could confidently know I had counted up to
also I went to a weird Montessori school so I did a decent proportion of this during the school day

honestly I have no idea if that’s a ‘cute smol Arete story’ or a ‘weird smol Arete story’ or a ‘wow Arete smol you was ridiculously stereotypical’ story
